Pats look at RBs Addai, Hightower, Grant -- Fri Apr 20 8:00 pm --
New England looking to bolster backfield with a veteran | The New England Patriots might not be finished adding to their stable of running backs. Free agents Joseph Addai and Tim Hightower visited with the team this week, a league source told NFL.com's Ian Rapoport. ESPN also reported former Green Bay Packers running back Ryan Grant will meet with the Patriots on Friday. (Yahoo Sports)
FF Today's Take: Based on recent production, Hightower would appear to be the most likely of the three backs to turn into a productive fantasy rusher. However, as the Patriots have shown time and time again over the last decade, they often employ a running back by committee system that sees a relative unknown emerge as the top back, much like BenJarvus Green-Ellis did in 2010.
